CrashtestDawnie's Journal, 13 Jan 20

I hope everyone’s week has started off great! I’m finally going to bed. I had a long day today. Tomorrow should be a little less crazy at work. I might have to work 6 days again though 😑
I’m officially starting a cut! Last week I cut my calories a little. I averaged 1950 cals a day. I started last week at 165 and today I’m 165.2 so I guess that is my maintenance. I’m going to try to lose 13 pounds (about 8% of my body weight) in 8 weeks. I think I’ll be able to lose about 3-4 pounds this week (because of extra water weight) and then I’ll try to lose about 1.5 pounds a week for the following 7 weeks. I’ve set my cals to 1700 and I’ll see what happens as I go.
My workouts are basically going to stay the same, but I’m doing a lot more walking. I did almost 6 miles at work today 😁👍 That’s about 4K more than usual 😃😃
74.9 kg Lost so far: 19.9 kg.    Still to go: 0 kg.    Diet followed: Reasonably Well.

Sounds like a plan! I'm trying to lose now too. Im bouncing up off my goal weight too much, so I need to get below so the "bounces" keep me in well in the blue. With fewer calories, I don't have as much energy to lift, but I'm OK with not trying to grow any muscle right now if I can maintain muscle will getting ride of some fat. Good luck on your plan. I bet you can do it!!! Cheering!!! 😁

Thanks guys!! 😁😁 I’m on day 2 and I’m finding it difficult to eat 1700 cals if I’m not eating a lot of junk. I ate only 1500 cals the last 2 days. I did a very lite workout this morning but I haven’t gone to the gym yet this week. I’m not sure I’ll be able to tomorrow either. I hurt my bicep carrying a printer at work. My arm is really sore 😞 I might go and do leg accessories if I can’t use my arm 😑

I'm so sorry about your arm. Take care of it! I'm glad you are mindful of the calories you are eating. 1500 calories of healthy food is better than 1700 of junk and sodium! You are very insightful. :0)

Yeah bummer about your arm. Injuries are the worst especially when you really are on a roll with workouts. There is always cardio (LOL)

Thanks guys! My bicep is still a bit sore, a little bit weak but functioning great otherwise.
